Abstract

Supported catalysts are essential components of many industrial processes and applications, ranging from petrochemical and catalytic converters to fuel cells. They are generally required because of their high surface area, reduced amount of active agent, and high thermal stability. The importance of the physical properties of the solid support, liquid solution, and process conditions was studied as well as the effect of interactions that exist between the dissolved metal and the solid support. This parametric investigation was used to improve understanding of the key parameters in impregnation and drying and how to adjust these parameters to produce a desired metal profile. This is an abstract of a paper presented at the 2007 AIChE Annual Meeting (Salt Lake City, UT 11/4-9/2007).
